Suppression of hydrodynamic escape of an H2-rich early Earth atmosphere by radiative cooling of carbon oxides
Abstract Radiative cooling by molecules is a crucial process for hydrodynamic escape, as it can efficiently remove the thermal energy driving the outflow, acquired through X-ray and extreme UV absorption. Carbon oxides, such as CO and CO2, and their photochemical products are anticipated to serve as...
